Naturally, it's not quite the same as if we were sitting here able to play Diablo 4, but we'll make do for the time being. “In addition to adding a new character class, a new act, and tons of fully randomized new content, we’re opening up the world so players are free to explore the game as they see fit, whether it’s following along with the story line or charting their own course across Sanctuary.We know everyone's all rather excited about playing Baldur's Gate Early Access right now, but let's not forget that a new season of Diablo 3 is also just around the corner. “With Reaper of Souls, we’re taking Diablo III back to its darker, deadlier roots and also giving players a new way to experience the game,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO and co-founder of Blizzard Entertainment. A new Adventure mode will also let players travel to any waypoint in any act, while a redesigned loot system introduces new ‘smart drops’, designed to offer players even better loot at an improved pace.

Reaper of Souls introduces a new character class – The Crusader – along with an all new act set after the conclusion of Diablo 3.
